Nearly half of new passenger cars in EU electrified -ACEA::Sales of electric cars in the European Union were almost half of all new passenger car registrations in the EU between January and November 2023 and already crossed the halfway mark in the month of November alone, data showed on Wednesday. Electrified vehicles - either fully electric models, plug-in hybrids or full hybrids - accounted for over 47.6% of all new passenger car registrations in the EU as of November, up from 43% in the same period last year, the European Automobile Manufacturers Association (ACEA) said. New-car registrations in the EU increased 6.7% in November, the 16th consecutive month of growth, with a year-on-year rise of 13.3% in the registration of electric vehicles.

Jesus, who buys a car just for road trips? Yes, the thing no one does is stupid. Can we go back to reality now?

Well that was my point. Driving only seems cheaper because you spend so much money commuting with a car already. People who live in cities that aren't car-dependent save money by only spending 40 euros on high speed trains when they want to travel long-distance.
